The first image you attach to the first post in your thread will become the thumbnail. The attachment feature is the button that looks like a paperclip.
ryukin here, got a couple of quick noob questions that I've been wondering about...
1. What's the difference between a friend and a contact?
2. What's the difference between a gallery and a sketchbook?
3. What's the difference between a sketchbook and an album or are they the same things?
4. What's a social group?
Oh, another question I had concerning posting images...
I've read on one thread to go through a image hosting website and get a link but in another thread I've read that you could upload images through conceptart's server? Which is the correct method?
These questions might be really dumb or obvious but I'm totally new to this forum and forums in general.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

... living in a fishbowl ...
a goldfish's memory
OK, let's see...
1. Not sure. I think friends show up listed on your profile page.
2. Galleries are a place to show your images. Click on the word "Gallery" at the very top under the top banner. Some of the gallery features seem to be buggy right now....the website is being redone at the moment.
Sketchbooks are threads created in the sketchbook subforum. They are threads where people post their work over time and people can leave comments.
3. Albums are created in the User CP and show up on your profile. I don't think many people use them.
4. Social groups are created around common interests/locations. There are a place for people to chat/share info about particular topics. The groups you belong to show up on your profile. Not sure how many people are using these. Also can be found in User CP.
Upload your images to the site using the attachment feature. When you create your post, there will be a button that looks like a paperclip. Click it and you will get an upload window.
Could someone help me? I find this site a little intimidating and really hard to understand. Sketchbooks, albums, galleries, porfolios, whats the differences between any of these? They all seem for the same thing. I really need some clarification and would really appreciate it having it explained rather than just pointing me to a link. ive asked for help on this before and got very little help or even concern taht I understood anything.
Sketchbook (Forum Section)--keep a long-running thread with your sketches, whatever else you're working on and people comment over time.
Albums--(in User Profile) part of the vBulletin software. Don't think people really use this much.
Portfolio/Art Registry (Forum Section)--this is in response to potential changes in the U.S. copyright laws (Orphan Words Act, which ended up being killed). Makes artists and their artwork easy to find so people don't use artwork without permission by saying they looked for the artist but couldn't find him/her.
Galleries-(Small thumbnails at the top of the forum. Also click on the word "Gallery" right above the thumbnails) custom built gallery feature. Has some issues and bugs that need to be fixed, but still works for the most part.
Three of these are covered in the post right above yours--I don't know if you noticed that.
I am very new here and I have a rather stupid question, I guess.
I can't seem to find the rules about what can and cannot be posted.
Like adult art or things like that?
okay, adult themed art seems to be okay, that much I've gathered. But i guess things like adult art involving children is out of the question, or gore/guro art....
Could someone point me in the right direction so I know where to look?
many thanks in advance!
Hey everyone,
I am learning to color on a pc tablet (digitally) so i was wondering if there are any good online tutorial out there?
Any help is appreciated! Thanks.
"The sound of eight hooves reaches his ears
Comes from the heavenly light
Two wolves' howls fill his heart with fear
And he sees two ravens fly
Down from the sky a warlord rides
Like fire his one eye glows
And just before the preacher dies
He knows his god is false..."
Thx for the info! I'm new here (only sight-seeing before), so I want to ask few (stupid) questions also...
1. Are we allowed to create sketchbook thread with so little amout of post? (Because some forum I joined before, forbidden their members to create a thread until we reach certain amount of post)
2. What are the max resolution for image attachment?
Any help appreciated
Yes, you have to make a few posts before you can start a thread, but it is a very low number. It is just a way to keep out spam.
These are the image restrictions for jpegs:
size 5.25 MB height 65535 width 65535
If you want that people can see when you are online on Skype via the forum, add your Skype username through your CP, and then setup this in Skype:
Finally a ray of hope,{ and contact !!!! oh my god!!!!!}. I have clicked on the "contact us button" and sent lots of emails asking, and pleading for answers to many of these questions. NO ONE seems to be driving that bus. This just adds to peoples frustration. I have sent mails to the admin. many times with no reply,,,, so my question is... Just how do we contact you guys?, { If the contact us button is unmaned, and it certainly seems to be the case.} There must be a secret door somewhere. { Why have a button that says " Contact Us," if it doesn't work?} It's like a door bell that doesn't ring.{ Terribly frustrating!}
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely "love" this site, but when you cannot get answers to your questions it tends to frazzle one to the point of ripping out ones hair,{ a habit I can ill afford}. Could there not be a easy way we could get help? Wouldn't that be a good thing?
Thank god " Tea Monster" came to my aid and helped me, but I don't think it should be that hard to contact you guys. Please, please, please, inform me {"us"}of the correct protocols and procedures to contact you guys if we do need some help or have problems.
I hope I don't sound angry, because I am not. And as I said, I love this site, I am just furstrated by the Nonis-Answerious syndrome.
Please help me save the last few surviving strands of hair I have left!!! LOL
Yours truly,
Mah ' Crub
If you have a question, you can create a thread in the Support section. You will usually get replies much faster that way.

I want to be a writer when I grow up.
My first book is going on sale in 2011!
If you remove an attachment from a post, is that image forever deleted from CA? If the answer's yes then I'm going to be sad.
Edit: (The answer was yes and I was sad.)

My Sketchbook
And then God said, "Let us make man in our likeness and our image. Let us make him ridiculously hard to draw so that poor artists everywhere will have to spend 10,000+ hours failing repeatedly before they can begin to capture the form and likeness onto a two-dimensional surface." And there was man. And it was good. And artists everywhere lost their minds.
Can I suggest/ask something? (Don't feel like opening a thread for it, LOL)
Can we get a 'View only Pictures' option/button?
It would be very handy when you look through a Sketchbook with 100 pages, and only every 5-6 pages some art pops up.
You can try fooling around with the Display Modes. It should be there at the top right hand corner of the thread (next to the star ratings).
Hybrid Mode and Threaded Mode will both give you a shortened list of all the posts in the thread. Then all you have to do is scroll through and click a post with a paperclip next to it. The paperclip means there is an attachment in that post.
Of course, that is only useful if the person used the attachment feature. If they didn't, you can still scroll through and click on the posts made by the sketchbook owner, which are likely to have images.
I am able to upload pics to my gallery, but bio information refuses to save. Help?
Please Sir, I'd like some more.
Is there a section where I can post upcoming art events?
Would it be possible to add "showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=#threadnumber#" to the FAQ? I was trying to find a way to link to the last post in my sketchbook for a while before finally giving up thinking there wasn't any way to do that in a link and not being able to find it asked or answered anywhere on the site, but I just realized it could be done like this and I think a lot of people would find it pretty useful, as many already try to continually update their sketchbook link with newer pages. Thank you!
Hello! I'm new to the forum and have a dumb question. I can not create my gallery for my bio is not saved and appears the error message "Could not save information! Please try again ..." However, I can add pics no problem. Thank you!
hey I'm just curious about this but what's up with the level1 gladiator etc, what's it all about and what condtions cause it to go up in level. seems interesting so i'd like to know more about it.
Its just your post count.
Ok, this is probably answered somewhere, but I've been up and down the forum and can't find any notice regarding CA Gallery (from v3.0).
Is there one in 4.0 and if so, where?
It's coming. Please be patient.
I didn't think it was possible to be called an artist when you have nothing to say. It's like being a writer who publishes individual words as books and expects to be praised for it.
Hi! I'm new here, but long time visitor, i read all the posts helping to solve not being able to put a thumbnail, and did everything i could imagine but... still nothing worked, i have the first post with the clip on one image but still no thumbnail...
Glad to be part of this! cheers!
(since there's quite of posts without thumbnail, would be cool having the C.A. Gods create some instinctive easy way for that action :] )
Tell me about it. I'll have another go at the programmer. In the mean time these instructionsmay help - it's not ideal I'm afraid.

Awesome Customer Service
Posted by Mariabailey618 on 02/04/2013
LAKEWOOD COLORADO, COLORADO -- I have to say I was very disappointed with advance ...Every time I have ordered parts it seems as though they never come when they tell me the last three years have been horrible customer service from several of the locations...
I met Brenda at advance auto in November I walked into see if there was apart in stock and they told me they didn't have it in stock the girl at the counter was about to let me leave when Brenda came up to me and said maybe I can help you she then asks what my issue was with my car I explained to her that I changed the battery and ever since then I could not get it started... She than asked if she could look at it and see if there was something she could do..It seemed like nobody there was knowledgeable with vehicles..Until I spoke with her she explained the type of car I have will not restart if you change the battery it has a kill switch because I have the viper alarm in my car..She than got the unlock code for me and we were able to start my car !!!!
Yeah ..It was definitely a time in my life that I was very happy I came to advance and the fact a female knew what was wrong is way cool you definitely have a company asset with Brenda being in that store since then my thoughts of advance have changed thank you Brenda for your help...Killer job and your a female showing the men up ..Like me. Thanks again.

Good Customer Service
Posted by Politeg200148 on 12/12/2011
LIVE OAK, FLORIDA -- I needed a headlight for My vehicle so, I called the local Advance Auto Parts Store # 9335 and spoke with Daniel B. Daniel told Me that He had the light in stock and would hold it for Me to pick up at the front counter. I asked Daniel if they would change the bulb and He stated that He could assist, but not change the bulb. When I arrived at the store, Daniel was waiting with the buld so I could make My purchase without waiting. I asked Daniel for a flashlight and some tools to change the bulb. Not only did He provde the tools but He was more than happy to assist. I got My bulb changed in no time at all. Advance Auto Parts could use more Employees like Daniel B. Daniel truly understands the meaning of Customer Service. Daniel should be rewarded for His Customer service skills because most businesses don't understand the importance of good Customer Service.

The service you received has become fairly common at places like Advance and Auto Zone. It's a great selling point for the stores. I wonder if local municipalities are taking notice to the increased number of repairs being done in regular parking places.
The thing that surprises me is that D was waiting with the bulb in hand. Most of these places will no set anything aside, but wait for you to come into the store. Nice job.

Replacement of car battery
Posted by Steven & linda on 11/19/2011
NEW YORK -- I have a 2007 Hyundai sonata. the same car and year my friend drives, which coincidentally had its battery die a cpl. of weeks back. I'm figuring if his battery went, mine can't be far behind. So off I go to shop for a new one and I find the website for this company, load in my info on my year, make, model and engine size and the system shows me the battery that fits my car. then I find the 20 dollar coupon and even better come to find they install it for free.
I pick out the store I want to pick it up at, show up last weeeknd, find they had already pulled my battery out of open stock and roll it out on a cart to my car, install it, double check the connections and even put on a device to save my radio setttings from being lost.
All in all a very competent, and professionally done job.

That's great to hear such a wonderful compliment. We need a lot more of them on this site.
Posted by trmn8r on 2011-11-20:
Places like AutoZone and Advance were really smart to roll out this kind of service. They don't even have to provide a garage bay.
Nice review.
Posted by clutzycook on 2011-11-20:
Huh. I had to replace my battery about 2 years ago. I went to AutoZone and they wouldn't even carry the thing to my car, never mind install it for me. Yeah, let a smallish woman haul a heavy car battery out and don't even open the door for her. No wonder I have a hernia!

Perhaps next time you need a clutch replacement have you or your mechanic buy it from someplace other than Advance, such as NAPA or an independent parts store. I am assuming that Autozone and O'Reilly's probably has the same Chinese-made parts.
Posted by trmn8r on 2011-10-24:
I'm a bit surprised that the shop you used sources its parts at Advance Auto. True enough that their parts are pretty much junk.
Posted by kjunkute on 2012-10-04:
I too have had trouble with a chinese made clutch slave cylinder purchased from Advanced Auto Parts. It was removed this week and the part was deformed. It looked like the material used was substandered and absorbed the clutch fluid and became deformed and blew out one side of the cylinder. I was left on the side of the road. I have looked on the internet to see if these clutch parts were recalled by the feds. No luck yet finding any information on such a recall. I would like to know if Advanced Auto Parts will step up and recall these crappy parts themselves.

Painless Purchase
Posted by Hunterspop on 12/08/2010
Winter is here and needed a new Battery for the car. Searched the internet and found a discount code for Advance Auto Parts. Purchased the Gold 84 month battery selling for 89.99. Entered the Code and the Checkout price was 57.99. Had to pay a 12.00 core charge. Drove to the local store. They credited me the 12.00 and installed the battery in about 10 minutes. A good value and painless to boot.

Great place for the Part-Time Mechanic
Posted by MDSasquatch on 09/30/2010
COLUMBIA, MARYLAND -- I am not a mechanic, I am however confident in my ability to read and follow directions. I own the Chilton's for my car and about a month ago, I replaced the brakes on my 2003 Caravan. I bought all the parts at Advanced Auto Parts; they were competitively priced and the guy behind the counter made me aware of a few things I hadn't thought about. Result - I have perfectly functioning brakes and it only cost me $125 and about 2 hours.
Last week, my check engine light comes on. As it turns out, the Oxygen Sensors are not functioning properly. I head back to Advanced Auto Parts. They had one of the two sensors, but offered to order the other one for me. They ordered it on a SATURDAY and I picked it up at 10am on SUNDAY. To my surprise, it is necessary to use a special socket to remove and install oxygen sensors.
Advanced Auto Parts "sold" me the socket set for $30; the salesman told me to bring it back when I was finished with it for a full refund. He said that is how the "rent" out tools. I ended up paying $175 for the parts; burnt myself on the exhaust manifold, but I did get some great advice from Advanced Auto Parts and saved $30.
My advice - if you are going to do some of your own work, check these guys out first, it could save you some time and some money.

\0/ \0/ \0/ Three cheers to Advance Auto APrts for taking care of my fellow M3C, MDSasquatch, with his car repairs! HOORAH!
Posted by MRM on 2010-09-30:
With regards to socket wrench to install/remove oxygen sensor theres one for $8 and I would buy one for future use.
Posted by MDSasquatch on 2010-09-30:
MRM - I got 98,000 miles out of my last set of oxygen sensors and I hope to do just as well with the new set. By then I will have probably lost the socket and have to buy a new one. Also, the set I bought had three different sockets, I only used one of them, but it is my understanding that some cars would require the use of one of the other two. For me, it was worth the effort to take it back.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-09-30:
I use advance auto parts very frequently. I have a 2004 Blazer that I do all the work on myself. All of the staff at Advance Autoparts is very helpful and generally know quite a bit and can at least point you in the right direction.

$50 Online Gift Card Fraud
Posted by Advanceautosucks on 07/03/2010
Ok, So I buy a bunch of stuff for my son's car in April 2010 online at ADVANCEAUTOPARTS. COM. In doing so, I qualify for a $50 online discount off my next online order in May. Without going into the hell I went to to get the parts, I apparently purchased the wrong style seat covers for my truck using the $50 discount. I returned them to the store I picked them up at (Instead of paying shipping costs, I ordered online then picked up in the nearest store.)The manager gladly took back the merchandise which was in excellent repackaged condition then told me the credit would be awarded via online purchase. ( i.e. "However you paid for this online, you will be credited...")

When did you purchase the seat covers? In the original order in April, or the Gift Certificate order of May?
Posted by advanceautosucks on 2010-07-21:
NOT in the ORIGINAL ORDER----With the $50 Gift Card.
Posted by ScooterB on 2010-10-28:
Similar happened to me . . . same online offer, I spent two hundred dollars but I never got the $50 gift card, called, told that I would receive it in two to four weeks, didn't get it, called again and was then told because I paid online with my paypal account, which I use a different email address for than the newly opened Advance AP account, that this caused them not to recognize me as being eligible for that offer . . . even though I was getting AAP emails to BOTH accounts. I had since spent another $100 only to now be told this and that "sorry, nothing we can do for you but here's a $25 gift card for your troubles"
So there you go. Gave me 25% of what I was entitled. If I could have ripped out the clutch and other parts I bought and return them I would have! I used the $25 and said goodbye to Advance Auto Parts!

Advance Auto Parts
Posted by GLMS on 11/15/2009
Advance Auto Parts (AAP) denied a coupon to be used on a sale priced item. Coupon clearly did not say "not acceptable" on sale priced items. Called Home Office. Talked to two CSR's and they said the store was wrong, they should have accepted, and the store manager would call. Nothing happened so I filed a complaint with the State Attorney General.
State Attorney General demands a response in 10 days. 30 days go by and AAP responds. They say they don't have to accept ANY coupon on a sale priced item. Manager decision. Any item on sale is already an "offer" and coupons can't be used with any other offer. (Isn't any item offered for sale just that - an offer?)
AAP Home Office responded to the State Attorney general late and said tuff - we aren't going to honor. For the customer inconvenience we'll send him a $5.00 gift card. Who wants this....I'm returning the goods.
TAKE HEED - AAP coupons aren't worth the paper they are printed on. I don't pay full retail for anything they sell as it's already over priced. Coupons are the only way to go, so know this before you get into a fight with a cashier. And if you call AAP Customer Service, they will take your contact info but NEVER call you back.
Be warned.

Simple. If its on sale you cannot use a coupon on it.

What was the item?

"I don't pay full retail for anything they sell as it's already over priced."
I shop at AAP all the time. I will say their prices on certain things are far better than Pepboys. Their prices are comparable to Autozone, sometimes a bit less. If you want overpriced parts, go to the Dealership, they will gouge you good.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-11-16:
Coupon acceptance is a LUXURY not a RIGHT.
"I don't pay full retail for anything they sell as it's already over priced." Arrogant much?
Posted by redmx3racer on 2009-11-16:
You can't really compare prices between dealers and discount auto parts stores. Dealer = OEM parts, AAP/PepB etc. carry mostly non-OEM stuff. Of course non-OEM stuff is cheaper. Not to mention some parts theys sell are remanufactured goods. I'm fine with getting Non-OEM parts for most stuff personally.
Posted by ScooterB on 2010-10-28:
LadyScot . . "Coupon acceptance is a LUXURY not a RIGHT" . . . uh, WRONG! A coupon is a legally binding contract. It is ALL in the wording of the terms . . .

Customer Full Disclosure -NOT!!!!!!
Posted by Gcurrie on 08/12/2007
BURLINGTON, NORTH DAKOTA -- I recently purchased 2 Halogen Head lamps from Advance Auto Parts, the sales person was polite and asked if I needed two or one. I stated that I should probably get two because I was not sure if both Highbeams were out or not and told him if it doesn't work I will just return them.
After getting home and determining the bulb(s) were not the cause, I tried to return the bulbs 1.5 hours later. I was then told that because I had touched the bulbs I could not return them and that they were no good anymore. I am now trying to understand how I am supposed to put a bulb in my car without touching it and if that is the case, why was I not told this at the point of sale and where does it say this on the bulb package. In my opinion this is not any way to treat customers. I will be calling the Regional President and will NEVER, NEVER, NEVER and did I say NEVER shop at ADVANCE AUTO PARTS again.
It is my mission to deter everyone that I know from ever shopping at this store.

Posted by geather-c on 2007-08-12:
the bulbs you bought will blow if you touch them with bare hands because of the oil that is on your hands(the so called salesman who sold you the bulbs should have told you this,but the DUH! guy's they hire are dumb,low payed people how do you think they build a new store every other week,on the backs of there most important asset(a dummy employee)if you buy those bulbs from now on either use thin rubber gloves or use tissue and wipe them with alcohol.
Posted by Hugh_Jorgen on 2007-08-12:
Every halogen bulb I have ever bought says right on the package "do not touch the bulb with bare hands". Check the package carefully - it there's no warning then when you hear from the regional office you have a pretty good argument. Good luck.
Posted by firengine103 on 2007-08-12:
When you purchase an auto part to install yourself, you are implying to the counter person that you know what your doing. right? Or, did you say, "I know nothing about this, heck, I don't even know if both high beams are out or not". Most if not all electrical parts are non returnable, anywhere. And when heather-c mentioned oil on your hands, it's body oil, not motor oil (just clarifying a point).
Posted by jktshff1 on 2007-08-12:
I think you have failed in your mission. Don't looks like you convinced anyone here.
Posted by Starlord on 2007-08-12:
Eve3ry package of halogen lights I have seen has the warning in rather large print, along with instructions for handling the bulbs. Basicall, hold hte plastic then peel it off teh backing cardboard, all the while holding the bulb in the plastic. Insert the bulb in the reflector assembly, then peel the plastic off the bulb. Do not touch the bulb with bare hands, as body oil on your hands will cause the bulb to fail. firengine is correct, bulbs are electrical, and electrical components are non-returnable.

Thank you all for your estute knowledge regarding Halogen Bulbs, maybe you should go and work for this company, because it is obvious some of their sales reps dont have a clue, here is my point. The regional manager returned my call and after hearing my story was in complete 100% agreement. She then called the district manager and he called me and allowed me to return the bulbs for a FULL REFUND. They also apologized for not letting me know the T&C's of electronic parts specifically regarding Halogen Bulbs, because as I stated there is not a sign anywhere nor does the receipt state that this is their policy. If indeed it is they need to do a better job of letting their customers know. Also there was no stickers or big bold print letters or even tiny small print documentation on the package of the bulbs I purchased either, whether you beleive it or not. So please excuse my ignorance regarding Halogen Bulbology, my highschool and college that I attended did not offer that course........P.S. Costco sells bulbs and if they dont work they have no problem with you returning them, what a novel idea!!

What you should have done is diagnose the problem before trying the part out. This is your own fault. Its not buy and try. You should have kept the headlights either way as you know they would eventually go out again. No one will purchase a package that as been opened then stapled or taped back shut, so you just expect the store to take a loss because of your own mistakes? Diagnose your vehicles problems before you start trying things out.

I am a bit stunned at all the haters here . . . or are they all AAP employees? Hmmm. AAP has accepted wrongly purchased and even open package bulbs on several occasions over the years so clearly they do not consider bulbs to be non-returnable and as for the bulbs now being bad . . that's riduculous. The warning on the package doesnt say if you touch them you cannot return them, it is there to warn you that the oils on your hands can cause the bulb to overheat and fail (fire highly unlikely) . . . the bulbs could have been cleaned and returned. Should have just cleaned them then returned to a different store . . . or next time buy them at Walmart. You will save money and if you need to return them they are fully refundable with no questions asked!

I love the way when someone is given good information here, they call everyone haters, and make the totally ridiculous statement that we must all work for company X. No place I know accepts electrical items back, and I have been buying and using car parts for approximately 50 years. I learned years ago that you shaould always replaces anything that is in pairs both at the same time. That means headlights, taillights, wipers, etc. I got news for ya, WalMart won't accept electrical items back either.

Horrible Service And Employees
Posted by Amy1979 on 08/07/2007
CHESTER, VIRGINIA -- I stopped by Advance Auto on a Sunday night at almost 8:00pm to get a new battery for my car. When I went to start my car earlier that day, the battery was dead so I had my mother help me jump start the battery and rode to Advance to get a new battery installed. Once I got there I cut the car off and on about 5 times to make sure it would start, and it did, everything was fine so, I still thought Maybe it might happen again during the day and I would be stuck on the interstate somewhere, so I went ahead and purchased a new battery. They sent two teenagers about 15-18 years old outside to install the battery. They had NO clue what they were doing! They installed a battery and the lights came on but, without the car being on. So, they told me to start it, the car did not start at all, it was DEAD! So, they said it was my starter, I advised them that I had NO problems with my car before I brought it there and they went and got another battery saying that Maybe that battery they installed was no good. They came back wioth another battery and then said,"Oh, it didn't work before because we had the WRONG BATTERY for your car, but this one should work now". They installed yet another battery and still the car was dead. Then they asked for the fuse box, I told them I had no clue but it was not inside of my car, they told me it had to be inside( come to find out it was under the hood!!)
So, I have all 3 of my children (5 month old baby, 5yr. old and 8 yr. old) in the car with all of my windows down and it starts storming, pouring down rain!!! The guys just laughed and said, "sorry, mam, we've did more than we should have, it's time for us to go home now" and turned around, went inside and locked the doors!!! So, there I was stuck with no car, my children in the pouring rain and my baby burning up with a fever!!! I had to walk to a convenience store and use a phone call my mother to come and pick us up. The next morning I returned to ADVANCE auto and spoke with the store manager. He came outside and said "there it should work now, have a good day" and ran back inside the store FAST. Well, I got in the car, it started BUT it was LOCKED in park so I still couldn't move it and there was no electricity going to it , windows, radio, lights, etc.. nothing worked, it just started , that was it! So, I go back in and the manager told me to call the dealer and get a code to program into the radio and everything would come back on and the car would run normal.
Oh, and he THREW 2 bottles of upholstery cleaner in the car and said "this is for your trouble"!!! Anyways, I finally figured out there was a securty button on the shifter to place the car in neutral and drove the car to the Dealer. Diagnostics, when they put the wrong batter in my car, they blew all the fuses PLUS a 100 watt that was under the fuse box, causing all of the electricity to blow out in my car. I had to pay $200 to have it fixed and took the receipt to ADVANCE and the same associate that messed my car was standing at the cash register and looked at me and said, "so, what fuse was it?" when I told him what I had to pay he LAUGHED and said, "well, that's good I didn't do it the other guy did" !!!!!!! The "evening manager" told me I need to bring the dealer receipt back another day for the store manager and it will takes MONTHS to be reimbursed!!!!!
I also had to take my 5 month old baby to the Dr. the next day and he was diagnosed with an Upper Respiratory Infection, which May or May bot have been from sitting in the rain at 9 o clock at night for almost 3 hours!!!!!! SAVE your money and ALWAYS take your car to a DEALER or mechanic you know, NEVER stop at one of these places like ADVANCE to get anything repaired!!!!

This is an unbelievable incident when you take into account your children, the rainy weather, and the car that wont start. The employees definitely dont seem to care about you and your childrens' well-being. SHAME on you Advance Auto in Chester,VA for not caring for your customers!
Posted by moneybags on 2007-08-07:
Write to the corporate office. Why were the kiddos with you? You should have left them with your mom while you dealt with your battery and you could have picked them up later. Chances are that the Upper Resiratory Infection was not from the rain but from a virus. Three hours! That's poor parenting! Where was the dad?
Posted by runaway on 2007-08-07:
While I agree that the business acted horridly and should be responsible for your repair bill, I have to wonder why your child was IN THE RAIN for three hours when he should have been in the car, nice and dry. Also, starting your car multiple times "to make sure it will start" simply runs down the battery, and would have been a bad situation if they didn't have a replacement battery for it.
Posted by DebtorBasher on 2007-08-07:
First of all, why would they have a 15 year old working there? I'd question that...You said your baby was already burning up with a fever while you had the car there, so I doubt the illness was caused by it. I do hope the little one is feeling better. These places usually have a place to wait inside, and hard as it may be, that's where you and your kids should have been while they worked on your car. You have the right to ask for a more experienced worker to do the work on your car, when you seen the 15 year old coming..I'd say no way! Anyway, you were not treated right, I do agree with that.
Posted by amy1979 on 2007-08-07:
Thank you so much for the feedback, I appreceiate it alot. And to answer the above questions, their father left us when I was 6 months pregnant with my last child. We have no idea where he is at. I am a single mom. Second, my children are MY responsibilty no one else's if I would have asked my mother if they could stay with her she would have told me the same.Lastly, my power was blown out on the car, which means I had the windows down while they were installing the battery for the children when they blew the power out my windows were stuck down that's how my children got wet...it was storming so the rain was blwing in my car and also I had to carry them to a pay phone with me as well as to call for help. The associates at the store locked the doors behind them after they said that they could not assist me and did not come to the door again until they left. Unfortunatly Advance Auto Parts is a store and they have no waiting area available. Thanks again for all the responses.

Thank you, Amy, for sharing with us your terrible ordeal you went through on that day. And I would like to thank all of the regulars on this website for showing their concerns for Amy.
Posted by Starlord on 2007-08-07:
Amy, just out of curiosity, what make and model is your car? Adance is like Auto Zone or Checker, an auto parts store that does not have a waiting room area. If a person acts like he is going to touch my car, I ask if he is ASE certified, or at least provides me some proof he knows what he is doing. Of course I am a former mechanic, so I know if they have the knowledge, or I borrow the tools (Auto Zone) and install the battery myself.
Posted by Anonymous on 2007-08-07:
Well they definatley hooked the battery up wrong, that is the only way they could have blown the fuses. Makes you wonder how inept someone has to be to install a battery wrong. Sorry to hear about your ordeal, it is a shame.
Posted by amy1979 on 2007-08-08:
Starlord, my car is a 2004 Toyota Matrix. The mechanic at the Toyota Dealership said the two boys may have been used to working on older American made cars. They were telling me my fuse box had to be inside of my car beside of the steering wheel but, it was actually under the hood!!!

Post subject: Endor Rebel Trooper: Costume comments please...
Hi all
There is a link below to some pics on flickr of my Rebel Endor Trooper costume in progress. Please may I have some feedback so I can get everything right before submission.
The Helmet has been cut down and reshaped with foam inside the ear parts. The jacket is a snow smock dyed beige and then painted with camo. All fastenings have been taken off. Trousers are beige again with camo painted on. Gloves are surplus US paratrooper with the wrist strap turned the other way round. Gaters are US surplus. Desert boots with toes painted for more authenticity. Webbing US surplus. Blaster DH 14. T shirt ultra rare surplus 70s ...
Thank you Duncan

Overall, your costume looks great. Excellent work on the gaiters. The only thing I really notice wrong is the color of your shirt. Standards say it needs to be beige/tan/sand colored and yours looks green.
I'm not an expert on the coloring, but it looks good to me. Looking forward to having you as a member of RAID.

Yes...the shirt must be tan/sand
Unfortunately, those WWII gaiters are no longer acceptable...
This is what the current ERS standard has to say about gaiter construction:
- A tube of heavy Cotton/Natural fabric starting from the bridge of the foot (covering most of the laces) continuing up past the boot top to slightly below mid-calf. 5-8 sets of eyelets (depending on your measurements). No clear photos of the laces have been found yet; most likely surplus olive-green para-cord was used. Color: The originals appear to have been made from a tan or sand material, but were so heavily dyed and painted to appear used they look dark brown or olive when actually seen on screen
they should look something like this and they are fairly easy to make...pattern and tutorial is at the Endor Bunker Yahoo Group:

Where not entirely thrilled with the shape of the donut (as noted it is not the right shape),
as a costume judge for the Troopers I would accept the donut.
I have, in the past, accepted Costume Base donuts that HAD been modified.
CB donuts in their "as is" form are not acceptable...
hope that helps...
We do have some folks selling some really nice donuts right now...so...
upgrading would be what I would advise...

Whether the defending champion Seattle Storm will have an opportunity to make a return trip to the WNBA Finals could end up coming down to their ability get past the Rebekkah Brunson and the top-seeded Minnesota Lynx.
Although Seattle Storm center Lauren Jackson might return from injury in time for the 2011 WNBA Playoffs, the return of L.A. Sparks forward Candace Parker could play a more significant role in the Western Conference playoff race.
The Seattle Storm's game tomorrow night against the Minnesota Lynx will marking the mid-point of their 34-game WNBA regular season schedule. Fittingly, a look back at their season series with the Lynx tells the story of their season.

Hughes and Warner lead from the front
The opening pair of Philip Hughes and David Warner made merry against an inexperienced Trinidad and Tobago attack as New South Wales posted a mammoth 170 for four.
Hughes played a destructive 64-ball 83-run innings while Warner hit a quickfire 63 off 41 balls as the duo raised 121 runs for the opening wicket to set the platform for the big total.
Dwayne Bravo was Trinidad and Tobago's most successful bowler with figures of three for 31, while left-arm Chinaman bowler Dave Mohammed took one wicket, giving away 26 runs.
Opting to bat, New South Wales got off to a rousing start as Warner and Hughes scored 24 runs in the first two overs. Both the left-handers were in a murderous mood from the word go as they clobbered Ravi Rampaul for three boundaries to pile up 14 runs in the opening over.
Sensing the ease with which the NSW openers were negotiating the pacers, Darren Ganga introduced his brother, Sherwin, into the attack in the third over and the off-spinner did justice to his skipper's call, giving away just 17 runs in his four overs.
However, his good work was undone by Darren Bravo at the other end as Hughes struck him for two fours in the same over through midwicket to take NSW to 50 for no loss at the end of the Powerplay.
The Caribbean side's problems were compounded by their bowlers' inability to pick wickets as Hughes and Warner piled up 71 runs by the halfway mark of the innings.
With wickets in hand, Warner cut loose in the 12th over and hit leg-spinner Samuel Badree for three sixes and a four to notch his fifty in just 31 balls.
In search of quick runs, Warner's explosive innings, which included five fours and three huge sixes, finally ended when Dwayne Bravo caught him off Dave Mohammed.
It could have been double delight for Mohammed had the bowler latched on to a straightforward chance from Hughes off the next delivery.
The Caribbean side finally got something to cheer about in the final over as Bravo scalped Moises Henriques (17 off 10) and Hughes with back-to-back deliveries and then Ben Rohrer with the final ball of the innings.
Hughes was going great guns with 11 fours and a six before he was caught by Keiron Pollard off Bravo.

The bad news is that Bimota's new DB10 costs £18,999 and is utterly impractical. The good news is it's one of the most entertaining road bikes on the planet. This bike is in a niche of a niche of a niche. It's been built for the riders who have a stack of cash in the bank, like the finer things ...

Taking just one year to build from a clean sheet of paper, Bimota's new DB7 has been an instant sales success. That's a relief for the small firm in Rimini, Italy, who were pinning their hopes on the DB7 being their lifeline for the future.
